[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Flatiron is proud to be part of the team creating the Automated People Mover at Los Angeles International Airport. Another important step in this innovative project has been achieved. This news release was issued by the project owner,<\/em><\/p>\n

(Los Angeles, CA) Today, Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) announced the successful placement of a fourth pedestrian bridge structure in the Central Terminal Area (CTA) over World Way. The crossing over the roadway will connect the Automated People Mover (APM) Center CTA station to the extension of Terminal 1 once the train system is complete.<\/p>\n

Over the course of four evenings, partially pre-fabricated steel trusses weighing a combined 209,500 pounds were assembled and lifted into place with a 350-ton crane. Supported over the roadway by a shoring tower, the segments were welded together. The installation of floor and roof beams is underway, which will complete the erection of structural steel for the pedestrian walkway.<\/p>\n

“Installing the pedestrian bridge structures over the only roadways providing access to the Central Terminal Area is a feat only made possible by the incredible coordinated efforts of our Airport Operations, Airport Police, traffic and security officers and the construction team,\u201d said Jake Adams, Deputy Executive Director, Landside Access Modernization Program (LAMP). “Our guests are now able to see an additional exciting glimpse at how they will move in the future via a connected train system.\u201d<\/p>\n
